Abstract: What is disclosed is an inspection device and a method wherein interconnected, substantially flat bags are provided, in which bags objects are present which are set vibrating, after which one or more images of the objects in the bag are recorded. The vibration is exerted on the objects in the plane of the interconnected bags, whilst a squeezing force effected by means of a pulling force on the bags is exerted on the vibrating objects. The combination of said vibration and said squeezing force on the objects, such as tablets, leads to a quiet and reliable inspection device.

Abstract: An inspection device for loose objects, for example tablets that may or may not be packaged, including a conveying mechanism for conveying the objects to at least one inspection area. The inspection device includes a mechanical impulse mechanism for moving the objects apart prior to or during transport to the at least one inspection area. This leads in particular to an improved automatic verification of the number, the shape, the color and the size of the tablets, as a result of which fewer errors will occur in the eventual administration of medicines to persons, or patients.
